Listed in Publishers Weekly!

I am excited that DEVIANTS made the list of "Galleys to Grab" for the upcoming BEA trade show/conference. 

The proof is below, but in case it's too small to read,  here's what it says, listed under Thrills, Chills and Fantasy:

Deviants by Maureen McGowan (Amazon Children’s Publishing). Book one of the Dust Chronicles is set in a post-apocalyptic world in which a 16-year-old orphan with mutated DNA must protect her younger brother.

It's all starting to feel real. Can't wait to reveal the cover art. :)

Agents and Free Books (not related)

Oh, blog. I am so sorry. How I have neglected you!

I admit. I've been cheating on you. I fear I am not well-suited to blog monogamy. (Blogmanog?)

If we are ever to heal our relationship, I must confess my sins: Today, I cheated in two places.

At Drunk Writer Talk, I blogged about the heavy burden of free books, even if they're digital.

And on the CLRWA blog, I compared searching for an agent to placing a want ad to fill a job post.

I will endeavor to be more faithful in the future, dear blog. :)
